Abstract

Monitoring through satellite data, in situ (including spectrometer data, GPS, thermal camera) , open data, data from various devices and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in the selected anthropogenic sites is of extremely high ecological importance for tracking natural processes, the consequences of climate changes and the creation of a useful model for the analysis of spectral characteristics based on machine learning. The timeliness of the data and the spatial extent of the observed objects allow satellite information to be reliable in monitoring and making predictions about the risk and potential risk of natural disasters, rise of average air temperatures and anthropogenic pollution. The sites were pre-marked based on open data from Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and administration. Data from the Multispectral Instrument (MSI) of the Sentinel 2 platform and SAR of the European Space Agency's Copernicus program, spectrometer (380 nm to 780 nm) and drone data were used. Landsat sensors and data from Sentinel 3 (EUMETSAT) were used to calculate the surface temperature of renewable energy sites such as photovoltaic parks. Data from different years were used in order to track the studied territories according to NUTS2. The result is the development of a useful hybrid model for spectral analysis and tracking of spatial dynamics and surface changes of objects of interest based on satellite and field surveys. Data from the ground mobile and autonomous weather station AWG 1, powered by an environmentally friendly magnesium-air battery was improved specifically for the project. Another important task is the creation of an energy atlas for the benefit of the Earth's Digital Twins. The data is part of an open data catalog of the NGO Eco Global Monitoring TA².
